Which Way pizza, a Colorado-based pizza restaurant developed by Tim Crawford of Golden, plans to open in Fort Collins across from the former Consuelo's Mexican restaurant on West Elizabeth Street.

Bistro, Subway planned

A bistro-type restaurant is coming to the former Maytag building at 1801 S. College Ave., just in front of the under-construction Choice Center apartments.

About 2,000 square feet on the south end of the building will be leased by Subway. The developer estimates the national sandwich shop could open in May. The 6,000-square feet on the lower level will be a bistro-type restaurant featuring an indoor-outdoor atmosphere created by rolling glass garage doors that can be opened in good weather, developer Les Kaplan told the Coloradoan.
